Within half a century we'
have seen the development of
such daily bits of magic as the
widespread use of electricity,
the universal use of autos in
their present streamlined form
the amazing mobility of the
modern neon sign, a new world
of fabrics in the nylon family.
We have seen social values
change and international rela
tions swell and ebb.
Within that same half cen
tury the motion picture thea
tre, both as a structure and as
an amusement center, has sti
mulated practically every busi
ness and craft which contri
butes to its being. Architec
ture has come through with
new and flexible plans under
the varied demands of the
theatre; air-conditioning, heat
ing systems, lighting processes
with the growing needs for
diffused illumination and hid
den bulbs, have all kept pace
with the demands of the thea
tre.
The current season, with its
magnificent films, marks the
fiftieth anniversary of the
first motion picture theatre
specifically built for the pur
pose of showing films. “Movie
time, U. S. A.,” scheduled to
open in October and last throu

DEDICATION SERVICE
HELD FOR BOOK-GIFT
SHOP
A most inspiring praise and
thanksgiving service was held
Sunday afternoon, September
30th, in the Burnsville Law
Building, when 44 people as
sembled in the second story
rooms occupied by Evang. and
Mrs. H. M. Alley to dedicate
the Book Store and Gift Shop
which opened there on Octo
ber Ist.
This new enterprise is an
! added step in the Missionary
and Evangelistic Faith pro
gram, “CONCERNING THE
CAUSE OF CHRIST,” which
, Mr. Alley has conducted since
■ June of 19W. Until April, 1950,
! headquarters for this work
; were in Asheville, N. C., but
since that time it has been
conducted from offices in the
Law Building at Burnsville.
The principal address at the
’ceremony was given by pastor
Earl Sturgeon of Patton Ave
nue Baptist Church of Ashe
! ville. Other speakers, who
[ made brief but appropriate
and encouragihg remarks,
I were Mrs. Edith Scott and
Jimmy Matthews, also of
Asheville; Dr. S. W. Vance, M.
D., of Mars Hill, N. C.; Prof.
Harvey Lance and Miss Beulah
Bowden of the Mars Hill Col
lege faculty; and Mr. G. C.
Hunter of Burnsville.
r Special music, for the occas
1 ion was rendered by the Styles
1 Sisters trio of Burnsville, and
by Messrs. Lowell McKee, A
I W. Compton, Jimmy Matthews
I I and Mrs. Ethel McKee, all of
J Asheville.

Shop is duly incorporated as a
non-stock religious organiza
i tion, and will be operated sole

l Missionary and Evangelistic
* purposes set forth therein.
Mrs. Alley will be regularly
in charge of the Sales Room,
as well as assisting Mr. Alley
in the other phases of the
work conducted from their of

A little over sixteen thous
and years is not too long a
time to live through the ages
from prehistoric days to post
atom period. The poet has said:
“Man, struggling for a million
years, gains one precarious
inch of forehead.”
The movies have helped us
understand the development of
that inch of brow.
THE YANCEY RECOBB
Do Mon Than Is Necessary
TWO AND ONE HALF YEARS ago, Clyde Randall Krech, Nash
* ville, Tenn., began working for an air line, and a hint that one
of the local officials gave him almost ruined his career. That him
was, “You just can’t make mistakes and last long.”
Nina months after he started, he was sent to the New York
home office in regard to a promotion. He didn’t get it Last sum-
mer, he was again sent to New York, after thor
oughly being screened in Miami for the same pro
motion. He didn’t get it. He had a third chance.
He remained just where he was.
He began retracing his work in an attempt to
find out what was holding him back. The company
has progress reports that go to New York every
six months. He reviewed the reports for informa
tion and could find only one thing that could pos
sibly have caused him to fail.
There was one column that was always
checked on him. “Does the necessary
amount of work, but no more.” He wasn’t
ashamed of that because he knew that he
had worked very hard for the company.
And he didn’t make mistakes. He couldn’t see how this
could bo the answer. He just let the thought linger in his
mind for a few days.
It then dawned on him that in his progress report was the
answer. “Does the necessary amount of work but no more.” He
had been worrying about making a mistake in his work and was
spending as much time checking his work as doing it.
He Bated the things that could happen if he made a few mis
takes and the worst thing he could find was they could fire him. He 1
began immediately to do the best he could and not check it. Now
he turns out a lot more work and he doesn’t make the mistakes
ho was worrying about. , -**• ,«
Two weeks ago the column that was checked on him was,
“Does the necessary amount of work and more.” He got a promo
tion. THggi |
